Turffontein Saturday

If the first one, Owlinthetree, arrives, the one in the second, Kir, will start outright favourite, despite the draw.

R3, I think Master And Man is a runner. Draw is a slight concern, made good improvement after the gelding and a rest.

R4, whilst Crowd Please is the top rated horse, I don't think his rating of 104 was achieved over the distance, therefore I will brass him. The favourite, Royal Utopia, interesting Lerena rode her to the two latest wins, but gets off to ride Crowd Pleaser. Actually think Arte will go very close here.

R5, Infamous Fox race to lose if in need of the run.

R6, actually fancied the scratched horse, Arrows Of Desire. Not sure Cumberland will see out the distance. Open race.

R7, Desert Rhythm is two from two course and distance, and has the benefit of a recent run. Could be the right one here, but does appear to be drifting, but the horse doesn't know that.

R8, Soqrat looks the one they all have to beat.
